The services section of the xml has been broken for some time. I don't know whether there is a patch which fixes it. I got around this by supplying the following in the configure block of my xml. As the comment suggests, I've left the services block in in the hope that one day this problem will be fixed: <scripts> <post-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <filename>services.sh</filename> <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <source><![CDATA[#!/bin/sh # disable services # the services block in this XML file is ignored by autoyast for SRV in isdn nfsboot nfslock nfs slpd smbfs splash splash_early splash_late xdm do chkconfig --del $SRV done ]]></source> </script> </post-scripts> </scripts> -----Original Message----- From: Ulrich Bernhard [mailto:ulrich.bernhard@id.unizh.ch] Sent: Tuesday, January 11, 2005 7:48 AM To: suse-autoinstall@suse.com Subject: [suse-autoinstall] autoyast runlevel editor and SuSE 9.2 I would like to activate and deactivate some services during autoinstall.

But at the end, the powersaved is not disabled and the mysqld is not activated.
